COPY

 

Description: This function copies selected surface(s) to a new location.

 

Usage:

 

1. DSI prompts the user to select surfaces to copy.

 

2. DSI prompts the user to create a local coordinate system.  The user also has the option to select the global coordinate system.  (Refer to Local Coordinate System, Section 2.16 for a thorough explanation of this procedure.)

 

3. Once the desired coordinate system has been defined, DSI prompts for the number of copies.

 

4. Once the number of copies has been entered, DSI prompts for the method of copy.

?  MOVE

> ENTER U, V, W INCREMENTS

•        i.e.,  /0,0,1000/.  This copies the surface(s) 1000 units along the W-axis or global Z.

ROTATE

•        If ROTATE is selected, enter the angle increment (right-hand rule) about the W-axis.  The remaining commands are the same as the MOVE option.
